Overview

An Earl with godly ambitions. A Viking warrior. A scheme, decades in the making. The heart of the Ironwood, a mysterious forest, has been pillaged and replaced with a mine. Hrothgar, the Earl of Lejre has amassed so much power in his great hall that he's now staked his claim as ruler of Midgard. But only under the use of violence. Children have been separated from their parents. Entire communities have been destroyed. And hopelessness grips the weak and strong alike. But there are still those willing to fight for their home. Skadi, a Viking Warrior, has recently defeated a j�tunn and now joins the wise, bodiless Mimir in search of his body. Skadi's victory has made her a legendary warrior, but this fame has come with a price: the attention of powerful and cunning adversaries. A message from the Earl draws Skadi into a decades-long conspiracy involving the Aesir gods. She is a fast, strong, and skilled warrior with years of combat experience, but if she has any hope of taking down the Earl and his followers, she's going to have to accept that victory could depend on other people. In Lejre, a town full of lies.

Thyra is a worthy successor to Williams' amazing debut novel, Skadi. Beyond the magic and mythology is a true story of love, friendship, and loyalty. Thyra is a Gaiman-esque adventure that you will not want to put down. Dennis K. Crosby, author of Death's Legacy Thyra is both a coming-of-age story and an epic adventure. Whether you're just discovering Norse mythology or well-versed in its stories, you'll enjoy the magic, mystery, and many twists in this book. Thyra will leave you guessing what's next for its heroes, as well as its villains. - Christina Rosso, Author of Creole Conjure and She Is a Beast In his worthy follow up to Skadi, Williams expands his Nordic mythology to include not only Bifrost keys, alchemists, runic tattoos, and a flygja named Helga, but to offer up a sly hint of social commentary for today's world. - James R. Dubbs Author of Confessions of a Farmers Market Romeo
